I don't see us keeping 11 DB's. To the best of my knowledge, we never have. I also think it would be very risky to go with only 1 backup interior OL.

You are correct, it should have been Libereus instead of Pashos. I think Murphy is a solid special teams guy and getting good reviews from camp. Also, Im not sold that Merriweather is going to make it thru a whole season.

He's not

1) did Royster do enough to earn a spot?

He looked good... in the last pre-season game... if he didn't do enough to earn a spot, he did enough to remind them how earned the spot the last two years. When he was drafted he pushed Keiland Williams off the roster, I thought Williams was going to regain his spot but it might come down to how bad his "sprained shoulder".

He did enough to get another look from one or two teams... if he gets cut

"Gumbs came in and competed. That’s what we tell these players: We don’t care if you’re a first-round draft choice or a free agent, we’re gonna play the best players. Gumbs came in and played well, and he earned himself a roster spot.”

Really? - surprise, surprise ...

P A T I E N C E - Scot & Jay's goal here is to make this franchise better - it will take time they understand the need to change to primarily building through the draft - plus have some luck go their way

Yeah, but we really don't have many numbers left. I think players should be able to wear the numbers of the greats, seeing it as an honor and challenge to live up to the legacy.
